| Quote east hull FC fan="east hull FC fan"If there's a decent 7 available in Oz then surely Souths would be in for him anyway? There's a real lack of 7's globally, especially good ones. We'd be better off signing Ellis, and developing Lee Williams.
Sign Long on for another year with Ellis covering and let Obst cover 9 & 6.
[uWe should be in for Dobson[/u.'"
You know he's under contract for 2012?

Although I did mean for after Long leaves.
Do you reckon he would go if Souths came in for him? Would Rovers be willing to let him go this year if it was an Aussie club?

If and when he leaves it'll be to the NRL, I'd assume. Turns 25 on Sunday, so his next contract will be a big decision for him. I'd like to think we could hold on for 1 more year at least and he'd go to an expanded (that's still happening, is it?) and richer NRL in 2013 - or better still, commit long-term to Rovers, but you've got to be realistic. I think all SL clubs might expect to lose a couple of desirable players down under in the next 2-3 years.

I think your right MR, the likes of Briscoe , welham, lomax etc and many other young decent talent will be on the radar for NRL clubs soon... and cash will be king.
as for Dobs i think given the cash situation down under and the lack of decent halves there as well he would be a fool to stay here..
shame though because SL needs players like Dobson

for the money longs looking for next year we would be mad not to sign him plus when you look at the input he has at training and the work he does with the young halfs its a no brainer

I am confused, from your PM it seemed you mean Fitz and we are talking about Long?
Long, I wouldn't pay him more than £60k a year, we need to invest in a 6&7 for our future.
